It seems that people, both men and women, are emotionally driven to find a single mate, fall in love, and create a monogamous relationship. However, men also seem to have an instinctive drive to "spread their seed" so to speak, and sleep around. Now, scientifically speaking (I'm not asking about people's characters or personalities, or for spiritual answers, strictly on a biological/genetic/evolutionary scale), why is that? Those two drives seem to conflict, so I wonder, what is the purpose of having both?
